Description

Invasion of the Body Snatchers (Allied Artists, 1956).
Insert (14" X 36").
Whether you enjoy this picture as a political metaphor - various
critics have read the movie as a thinly disguised allegory for
either the dangers of blacklisting during the McCarthy era, or a
cautionary tale about the imminent danger of Communist invasion and
infiltration - or an extremely suspenseful sci-fi classic, there's
no doubt that this is one of the best genre movies of the 1950s.
The screenplay was adapted from Jack Finney's novel and stars Kevin
McCarthy and Dana Wynter. The pair flees the mayhem on this
colorful insert with its iconic "hand" artwork. There is a tear in
the right border into the background, and a tear and light creasing
in the top border, and small tears, two chips and creasing in the
bottom border. Very Fine- on Paper.
